Client vs. Customer - There is a Difference!

The most important difference between a “CUSTOMER” and a “CLIENT” is that a client receives ADVICE from a realtor!!! Realtors cannot legally give advice to a customer...this is reserved for buyers or sellers who have a contractual relationship with the Realtor.

That means only Buyer Clients can get advice on prices of homes they viewed, guidance on how to structure an offer in their own best interest, as well as many, many other questions and concerns that need to be addressed.

Being just a customer is not an advantageous position to find yourself in!

So, do not be confused that the friendly real estate salesperson driving you around showing you homes is automatically on your side.

Make no mistake, unless you have a written agency agreement with that salesperson, the real estate act and the law of agency obliges them to act in the best interests of the seller, not you!

So if you choose to disregard this opinion and be sold by the Seller's agent, "Let the BUYER BEWARE."
